(I have etherboot working fine on another configuration, which uses an old 486 with a wd8003 card... - used this for testing setup. ). From the log files on the server : Jan 7 09:13:44 server dhcpd: DHCPDISCOVER from 00:00:e8:84:02:3d via eth0 Jan 7 09:13:44 server dhcpd: DHCPOFFER on 10.1.1.29 to 00:00:e8:84:02:3d via eth0 Jan 7 09:13:44 server dhcpd: DHCPREQUEST for 10.1.1.29 from 00:00:e8:84:02:3d via eth0 Jan 7 09:13:44 server dhcpd: DHCPACK on 10.1.1.29 to 00:00:e8:84:02:3d via eth0 Jan 7 09:14:08 server tftpd[830]: tftpd: trying to get file: Nö^I Jan 7 09:14:08 server tftpd[830]: tftpd: serving file from /tftpboot Jan 7 09:14:30 server tftpd[833]: tftpd: trying to get file: Nö^I Jan 7 09:14:30 server tftpd[833]: tftpd: serving file from /tftpboot Jan 7 09:14:43 server tftpd[842]: tftpd: trying to get file: Nö^I Jan 7 09:14:43 server tftpd[842]: tftpd: serving file from /tftpboot On the console, it says it is trying to get the correct file : /tftpboot/vmlinuz.diskless Where is a good place to look to debug this one... The server side seems to be fine, its as if the return request is being corrupted : A packet sniff/tcpdump gives : 17:43:51.700377 < debug.atlantek.com.au.2385 > server.atlantek.com.au.tftp: 25 RRQ "NM-v^I" 17:43:52.846981 > server.atlantek.com.au.4720 > debug.atlantek.com.au.2385: udp 19 17:43:52.850385 < debug.atlantek.com.au.2386 > server.atlantek.com.au.tftp: 25 RRQ "NM-v^I" 17:43:53.996785 > server.atlantek.com.au.4720 > debug.atlantek.com.au.2386: udp 19 17:43:54.000228 < debug.atlantek.com.au.2387 > server.atlantek.com.au.tftp: 25 RRQ "NM-v^I" 17:43:55.149900 > server.atlantek.com.au.4720 > debug.atlantek.com.au.2387: udp 19 17:43:55.152677 < debug.atlantek.com.au.2388 > server.atlantek.com.au.tftp: 25 RRQ "NM-v^I" 17:43:56.298026 > server.atlantek.com.au.4720 > debug.atlantek.com.au.2388: udp 19 17:43:56.301052 < debug.atlantek.com.au.2389 > server.atlantek.com.au.tftp: 25 RRQ "NM-v^I" Any suggestions, welcome ?
